Slept on my back after Brazilian Butt lift. (photo)

It doesn't appear as though much damage was done as things look very good!  I don't know how consistent a patient can be in avoiding direct pressure when sleeping.  That being said, with all the Brazilian Buttlift patients in my practice, I have never restricted them in ways to sleep.  Check with your surgeon however in my practice I would tell you that things will be fine.  Best Wishes!!

Hello jewlz696,
It’s a pleasure to answer your questions! Plastic surgeons have different post-operative protocols, customized for each patient’s needs and specific requirements, to achieve optimal results. Based on my experience, after performing Brazilian Butt Lift (BBL) surgery you must avoid sitting or sleeping on your back at least the first 8 weeks or else the desired outcome will be negatively affected. Putting pressure on your buttocks by sitting down or laying on it, especially for long periods of time, can stiffen, deform and even cause the resorption of the newly transplanted fat cells. Getting plenty of rest will help you remain comfortable and shorten your recovery. I suggest my patients stomach sleeping for least the first 8 weeks after BBL surgery, having different pillows at hand and changing their neck’s position from time to time, to feel more comfortable in bed. Side sleeping (in the rescue position on your side) can also be an option after BBL surgery, but only if you feel certain you won’t end up on your back. Most of your weight will be on the front of one of your hips. Your legs will be sprawled out, and you can place a pillow in between them to make it more comfortable. Consult with your plastic surgeon about the current condition of the newly transplanted fat cells. Good luck and may God bless you! Dr. De La Cruz. 

hello thank you for your question and provided information as well. based in your question its recommended sleep on bobby pillow first 1 month after surgery , and after this time you can sleep in your back and in your butt.

It does not appear as if there was any damage done to your surgery. It is always recommended that you consult with your surgeon as well with any concerns or questions you may have.

Thanks for your question.
There is no scientific evidence that sitting on a BBL will affect the results. However, it makes intuitive sense not to traumatize the areas where fat was placed and is currently healing. I suggest you check with your surgeon for his or her recommendation. 
Take care,

It's best to avoid sleeping on your back for at least two or even four weeks after your fat transfer procedure. If you slept on your back a few nights you should not worry about losing your results. Consult with your plastic surgeon for more detailed information.Best wishes,Dr.Bruno

No pressure is the best pressure. I typically recommend strict offloading i.e. "No sitting" or supine sleeping for 2 weeks (minimum).
If you are going to sit (for travel etc.) an pressure reduction pillow is helpful. There are a number of popular options available but all are variations on the same theme...offloading pressure on the new grafts. The Booty Buddy is one of the more popular options, however, there are numerous others which can be easily found via a cursory internet search.With regards to your particular question, it is unlikely you did serious damage to the grafts. I would also prepare for anywhere between 30-50% resorption (as quoted in the literature). I have found that the happiest patients are less focused on the volume of augmentation and more focused on the contouring benefits of the liposuction/harvest.
As always, discuss your concerns with a board certified plastic surgeon (ABPS).

Thank you for your question. Though it is not ideal to sleep on your back after a Brazilian Butt Lift, a couple nights should not ruin your results. I would just advise you to not sleep on your back moving forward, and if you have trouble staying off your back, try using pillows to prop yourself to prevent from rolling over. If you have any concerns, contact your plastic surgeon. Good luck! Kamran Azad MD, Board Certified Plastic Surgeon

Great question!  Although not ideal, you most likely did not produce any significant damage.  There can be some mild fat loss, but I think the majority of what is done will still remain.  The bed has a lot of cushioning so that helps.Best of luck and hope this information helps!- Dr. Roger Tsai   @DrRogerTsai  

Thank you for your question.  I will instruct my patients to strictly lay on their abdomen when they sleep for 3 weeks.  Too much pressure in the first few days may affect the fat transfer.   Discuss your concerns with your plastic surgeon and follow his/her recommendations. Best wishes.
